The luncheon meeting will include a casual conversation with Magistrate Judge James R. Knepp, II from the United States District Court, Northern District of Ohio. Judge Knepp will talk about what’s new at the district court, any interesting decisions and cases, trends going forward, etc.

Attached is the details flier for the upcoming Fall CLE Event mentioned in the TIPLA Membership/Event brochure. It is sure to be an informative session.

Also, lunch is provided along with a reception afterwards at the College of Law. Now that we can eat and get CLE credit the only thing left is walking AND chewing gum!
Looking forward to seeing you there!

As you can see we have some great events planned and CLE Activities to assist and advance everyone’s practice.

Our first event is an All-Day CLE event “Doing Business in China,” organized by Prof. Llew Gibbons at the UT College of Law. This event is co-sponsored by TIPLA and the Toledo Bar Association. It includes several prominent speakers and can earn you up to 7 hours of CLE credit. That’s 7 hours of CLE for $75! (A great value at half the member price of the TBA!)

I encourage you to mark this event on your calendars and plan on enjoying another year of TIPLA Activities.

This year the membership rate remains the same as last year (Can it get any better?).

You can mail in your dues payment (see the brochure) or you can bring the dues payment and the $75 CLE co-payment to the Fall CLE at UTLaw!
